The powerful Mt. Etna, even though it is the largest active volcano in Europe, is an oasis from the busyness of the city of Catania. It is a great opportunity to take your mountain bike and get away!

This is an entrance to the “high mountain trail” that encircles Mt. Etna at a safe distance from the active craters. You pass from the southwest side of the mountain to the northeastern side, passing through forests, plains, and spectacular views of Mt. Etna on the one side and the hills and valleys of Sicily below.
